I loaded up my vr headset the other day for the first time in.... A year? Maybe more.
And I was surprised to find my own custom decorated room was gone and instead I had a balcony to that Horizon place.
I could see little people running and jumping around and some portals or doorways and other stuff.

Is that what they are shutting down?
So what happens to VR headsets' "home screen"?
Does it go back to the way it was?
